The product of these numbers are 0.100
since 0.100 is same as 0.1
so there is only one decimal place

This is an area problem. The key words are 120 square feet and 12 feet longer.
And of course width is a key word when you are reading this.
Formula
Area = L * W
Givens
W = W
L = W + 12
Substitute and Solve
Area = L* W
120 = W*(W + 12)
W^2 + 12W = 120 square feet
w^2 + 12w - 120 = 0
This does not factor easily. I would have thought that a graph might help but not if the dimension has to be to the nearest 1/100 of a foot. The only thing we can do is use the quadratic formula.
a = 1
b = 12
c = - 120
w = [ -b +/- sqrt(b^2 - 4ac) ]/(2a)
w = [-12 +/- sqrt(12^2 - 4*(1)(-120)] / 2*1
w = [-12 +/- sqrt(144 - (-480)]/2
w = [-12 +/- sqrt(624)] / 2
w = [- 12 +/- 24.979992] / 2 The minus root has no meaning whatever.
w = (12.979992) / 2
w = 6.489995 I'll round all this when I get done
L = w + 12
L = 6.489995 + 12
L = 18.489995
check
Area = L * W
Area = 6.489995*18.489995
Area = 119.999935 The difference is a rounding error
Answer
L = 18.489995 = 18.49 feet
W = 6.489995 = 6.49 feet
Note: in the check if you round first to the answer, LW = 120.0001 when you find the area for the check. Kind of strange how that nearest 1/100th makes a difference.
-8-5b+7+5b
add +5b to -5b to get 0.
-8+7 = -1
Answer is -1.
Answer:
The Total number of Professors = 48
Step-by-step explanation:
Given as,
The total number of Faculty = 136
And the Ratio of Professors to Lecturers = 6 Ratio 11
Now According to question
Professors : Lecturers = 6 : 11
So, Let the Number of Professors = 6x
And The Number of Lecturers = 11x
∴ 6x + 11x = 136
Or, 17x = 136
Or, x = 
= 8
Hence, the number of Professors = 6 × 8 = 48 Answer
Answer:
300 g of sugar
Step-by-step explanation:
15 divided by 5 is 3 so 3 x 100 is 300. Hope this helps! :)
